A Grammy award winner, Gaga rose to stardom after her first hit album "The Fame" in 2008. Pursuing her life-long passion for music, the singer recently addressed her critics in the industry.

"It sometimes makes people feel better about themselves to put other people down or make fun of them or maybe make a mockery of their work," said the New York City native during a concert over the summer.

"And that doesn't make me feel good at all," Gaga continued. "That just makes me feel like I'm not being a good human being … I don't even want to fight back because it's more important to me to keep writing music. Because that's really all I care about, is the music."
